< Deuteronomy 29 >
1 These are the words that Yahweh commanded Moses to tell the people of Israel in the land of Moab, words that were added to the covenant that he had made with them at Horeb.
Ici nĩcio ciugo cia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova aathire Musa arĩkanĩre na andũ a Isiraeli kũu Moabi, hamwe na kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aarĩkanĩire nao marĩ Horebu.
2 Moses called to all Israel and said to them, “You have seen everything that Yahweh did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his servants, and to all his land—
Musa nĩetire andũ a Isiraeli othe, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: Maitho manyu nĩmeyoneire ũrĩa wothe Jehova eekire Firaũni kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na ũrĩa eekire anene ake othe na bũrũri wake wothe.
3 the great sufferings that your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders.
Nĩmweyoneire na maitho manyu magerio macio manene, o na ciama na maũndũ manene ma kũgegania.
4 But until today Yahweh has not given you a heart to know, eyes to see, or ears to hear.
No nginya ũmũthĩ Jehova ndamũheete meciiria marĩ na ũmenyo, kana maitho me kuona, kana matũ me kũigua.
5 I have led you for forty years in the wilderness; your clothes did not wear out on you, and your sandals did not wear out on your feet.
Ihinda rĩu rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna ndamũtongoririe werũ-inĩ, nguo cianyu itiigana gũtuĩka, o na kana iraatũ iria ciarĩ magũrũ manyu igĩtarũka.
6 You did not eat any bread, and you did not drink any wine or other alcoholic drinks, so that you might know that I am Yahweh your God.
Mũtiigana kũrĩa irio, kana mũkĩnyua ndibei kana kĩndũ kĩngĩ o gĩothe kĩgagatu. Ndeekire ũndũ ũcio nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu.
7 When you came to this place, Sihon, the king of Heshbon, and Og, the king of Bashan, came out against us to fight, and we struck them down.
Rĩrĩa mwakinyire gũkũ, Sihoni mũthamaki wa Heshiboni, na Ogu mũthamaki wa Bashani nĩmookire kũhũũrana na ithuĩ, no nĩtwamatooririe.
8 We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, to the Gadites, and to the half tribe of Manasseh.
Nĩtwegwatĩire bũrũri wao na tũkĩũheana ũtuĩke igai rĩa andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni, na wa Gadi, na nuthu ya mũhĩrĩga wa Manase.
9 Therefore keep the words of this covenant and do them, so that you may prosper in everything that you do.
Rũmĩrĩrai wega ciugo cia kĩrĩkanĩro gĩkĩ, nĩguo mũgaacĩre maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa mũrĩĩkaga.
10 You stand today, all of you, before Yahweh your God; your chiefs, your tribes, your elders, and your officers—all the men of Israel,
Inyuĩ inyuothe mũrũgamĩte ũmũthĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai wanyu, na atongoria anyu, na atongoria a mĩhĩrĩga yanyu, na athuuri anyu, na anene anyu, na arũme arĩa angĩ othe a Isiraeli,
11 your little ones, your wives, and the foreigner who is among you in your camp, from him who cuts your wood to him who draws your water.
hamwe na ciana cianyu, na atumia anyu, na andũ a kũngĩ arĩa matũũraga kambĩ-inĩ cianyu, arĩa mamunagĩra ngũ na makamũtahĩra maaĩ.
12 You are here in order to enter into the covenant of Yahweh your God and into the oath that Yahweh your God is making with you today,
Mũrũgamĩte haha nĩguo mũgĩe na kĩrĩkanĩro na Jehova Ngai wanyu, kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa Jehova ekũgĩa na inyuĩ ũmũthĩ, na akĩhũũre mũhũũri na ũndũ wa mwĩhĩtwa,
13 so that he may make you today into a people for himself, and that he may be God for you, as he spoke to you, and as he swore to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
na agĩĩkĩre hinya kũna atĩ mũrĩ andũ ake ũmũthĩ, na atĩ atuĩke Ngai wanyu, o ta ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire, na ningĩ o ta ũrĩa eehĩtire kũrĩ maithe manyu Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Jakubu.
14 For it is not only with you that I am making this covenant and this oath—
Ndirathondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gĩkĩ na mwĩhĩtwa na inyuĩ inyuiki,
15 with everyone standing here with us today before Yahweh our God—but also with those who are not here with us today.
o inyuĩ mũrũgamĩte haha na ithuĩ ũmũthĩ mbere ya Jehova Ngai witũ, no nĩ hamwe na arĩa matarĩ haha ũmũthĩ.
16 You know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the midst of the nations through which you passed.
Inyuĩ ene nĩmũũĩ ũrĩa twatũũraga bũrũri wa Misiri na ũrĩa twatuĩkanĩirie mabũrũri-inĩ tũgĩũka gũkũ.
17 You have seen their disgusting idols made of wood and stone, silver and gold, that were among them.
Gatagatĩ-inĩ kao nĩmuonire mĩhianano yao ĩrĩ thaahu, na ngai cia kũhooywo cia mĩtĩ na cia mahiga, na cia betha na cia thahabu.
18 Make sure there is not among you any man, woman, clan, or tribe whose heart is turning away today from Yahweh our God, so as to go worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is not among you any root that produces gall and wormwood.
Menyererai wega hatigakorwo mũndũ mũrũme kana mũndũ-wa-nja, kana andũ a nyũmba ĩmwe kana mũhĩrĩga gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu ũmũthĩ, ũngĩgĩa na ngoro ya kũhutatĩra Jehova Ngai witũ athiĩ akahooe ngai cia ndũrĩrĩ icio; menyererai wega gũtikagĩe mũri mũrũrũ gatagatĩ kanyu ũngĩciara maciaro marũrũ ta nyongo.
19 When that person hears the words of this curse, he will bless himself in his heart and say, 'I will have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart.' This would destroy the wet together with the dry.
Rĩrĩa mũndũ ta ũcio aigua ciugo cia mwĩhĩtwa ũyũ, eĩtagĩria kĩrathimo, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio ageciiria atĩrĩ, “Ndikona ũgwati o na ingĩkĩrĩria gũthiĩ na njĩra yakwa mwene.” Ũndũ ũcio nĩũkarehe mwanangĩko bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ maaĩ, o na ũrĩa mũngʼaru.
20 Yahweh will not pardon him, but instead, the anger of Yahweh and his jealousy will smolder against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book will come on him, and Yahweh will blot out his name from under heaven.
Jehova ndarĩ hĩndĩ akenda kũmũrekera; marakara make na kĩyo gĩake nĩikarĩrĩmbũkĩra mũndũ ũcio. Irumi ciothe iria ciandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ nĩikamũkinyĩrĩra, nake Jehova nĩakahuura rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩehere gũkũ thĩ.
21 Yahweh will set him apart for disaster out of all the tribes of Israel, in keeping with all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law.
Jehova nĩakamwamũra kuuma mĩhĩrĩga-inĩ yothe ya Isiraeli, anyiitwo nĩ mwanangĩko, kũringana na irumi ciothe cia kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa kĩandĩke thĩinĩ wa Ibuku rĩĩrĩ rĩa Watho.
22 The generation to come, your children who will rise up after you, and the foreigner who comes from a distant land, will speak when they see the plagues on this land and the diseases with which Yahweh has made it sick—
Ciana cianyu iria ikaamũrũmĩrĩra njiaro-inĩ iria igooka thuutha, o na ageni arĩa magooka moimĩte mabũrũri ma kũraya nĩmakona mathĩĩna marĩa makorete bũrũri o na mĩrimũ ĩrĩa Jehova ahũũrĩte bũrũri nayo.
23 and when they see that the whole land has become sulfur and burning salt, where nothing is sown or bears fruit, where no vegetation grows, like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, that Yahweh destroyed in his anger and wrath—
Bũrũri wothe ũgaatuĩka kũndũ gũtangĩkũra kĩndũ, kũiyũrĩte cumbĩ na ũbiriti, gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩkahaandwo na gũtirĩ riya rĩgaakũra kuo, kana kĩndũ kĩmere kuo. Gũkahaana ta mwanangĩko wa matũũra ma Sodomu na Gomora, na Adima o na Zeboimu, marĩa Jehova aaharaganirie arĩ na marakara mahiũ.
24 they will say together with all the other nations, 'Why has Yahweh done this to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?'
Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ikooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte Jehova eke bũrũri ũyũ ũguo? Marakara maya mahiũ ũũ, nĩ ma kĩ?”
25 Then people will say, 'It is because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh, the God of their ancestors, that he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt,
Narĩo icookio rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tondũ andũ aya nĩmatiganĩirie kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova, Ngai wa maithe mao, kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa aagĩire nao rĩrĩa aamarutire bũrũri wa Misiri.
26 and because they went and served other gods and bowed down to them, gods that they had not known and that he had not given to them.
Nĩmamwehereire magĩthiĩ kũhooya ngai ingĩ na magĩciinamĩrĩra, ngai matooĩ, na ngai Jehova ataamaheete.
27 Therefore the anger of Yahweh has been kindled against this land, so as to bring on it all the curses that are written in this book.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio marakara ma Jehova makĩrĩrĩmbũkĩra bũrũri ũyũ, akĩũkinyĩria irumi iria ciothe ciandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ.
28 Yahweh has uprooted them from their land in anger, in wrath, and in great fury, and has thrown them into another land, as today.'
Ningĩ Jehova, arĩ na marakara mahiũ na mangʼũrĩ manene, nĩamamunyire kuuma bũrũri wao akĩmaikia bũrũri ũngĩ, ta ũrĩa gũtariĩ rĩu.”
29 The secret matters belong alone to Yahweh our God; but the things that are revealed belong forever to us and to our descendants, so that we may do all the words of this law.
Maũndũ ma hitho nĩ ma Jehova Ngai witũ, no maũndũ marĩa maguũrie nĩ maitũ na ciana ciitũ nginya tene, nĩguo tũrũmagĩrĩre ciugo ciothe cia watho ũyũ.
